Safety in car

What can I do to be safer in a car?

You must use a child car seat or booster until you reach 135cms tall or the age of 12 whichever comes first. Once you reach either of these limits, you can use an adult seat belt. This is the law, and it could save your life in a crash. So, get mum or dad to measure you. If you are under 135cms and less than 12 years old, they will have to weigh you too before choosing the right seat or booster for you.
